People who, for example, bring up pedophilia whenever homosexuals are mentioned (and such people abound) are examples of people who are at least a bit antsy and over the top about homosexuality. Such oddly disproportionate fear, in the face of the huge number of heterosexual offenders, certainly can be used to justify use of the term homophone in many instances. It is a very valuable word. The people who don't like it, skirt close to the edge of it. Racist, too, is a very good word- and the people who don't like it, often are racists.
